Got really sore boobs this month. Just accidentally brushing them with my arm makes them hurt. Not sure its because my nips are pierced (had them done ages ago) but it's never been this painfull before. Plus my smell is going insane. Thought the microwave smelt like onions and the Mrs couldn't smell it at all.

Fingers crossed for you all this week!

This is the month I turn 35 and I’m really looking forward to being called geriatric 🙄 should have started earlier.

We’re down visiting my parents this weekend which is terrible timing for my fertility window. Couldn’t have sex in my parents house when I was younger, not going to start now 😆 I guess we’ll see what happens!

I often think I should've started earlier but I think it's easy to say that knowing what we know now. I'm also glad I didn't rush and potentially have a baby before I was ready

11 DPO here, i’m trying not to symptom spot but I can’t help myself!

I don’t know if this is helpful to anyone but with my first pregnancy my symptoms during the TWW were:

-Waking up randomly throughout the night
-Vivid dreams
-Sore boobs
-Cramps , some quite painful! Pulling sensation also
-Lower backache

Omg I spent the whole night waking up last night. Literally every 10 mins at one point until my alarm went off. Now I'm falling asleep in my chair at work. Fingers crossed this is a good sign.

The peak usually indicates that you are likely to ovulate in the next 24-48 hours, so as much as you can in the next few days! Good luck to your partner 😂

Lucky him, I’ll put him to work 😂 I’m guessing there’s no downside to doing it really often in this period?

7DPO tomorrow and had all of these symptoms. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 I have headaches too which seem to be a hormonal thing for me. Had all of these symptoms last month with my chemical too but not the lower backache interestingly.
 
New to this thread but coming for a bit of a rant? If that's okay. I have MRKH and I'm starting embryo freezing soon, have my investigations next week. My AMH is so low 0.4 for my age, 23 yrs old. So anyway I'm reading the book it starts with the egg to try help and I messaged a woman on Instagram who has gone through IVF and has a big following and same low AMH as myself. I asked her for advice on how she raised her AMH levels etc and she gave me such a rude response, I don't even know why I bothered. She seemed so nice in the comments of her posts, telling people to message her for tips etc and then I do and it just rubbed me the wrong way!! I've attached the pictures as I don't know if I'm just being Iver dramatic but I'm just a bit pissed off at the response she gave... she has over 16k followers too!!

Anyway if anyone can actually give me some good advice instead of just "read this book" I would appreciate it ❤

Edit -the woman I asked is now expecting which is why I asked her, as I thought well there must be a bit of hope there if I speak to someone who has had success. Just think she was so rude!

It’s a very blunt response, especially when talking to someone who is clearly worried and relatively young in age in the TTC world :( I don’t have any advice as I’m not clued up but sending you lots of luck 💖

Thank you! I just wish I never bothered and feel a bit embarrassed. Hoping some people on here can give me some advice on how to improve AMH and just general egg quality.

I've been taking seven seas pre conception pills but don't know if anyone can recommend any better? Just want someone to tell me what to do as I feel a bit lost and hopeless atm.❤️
 
I'm so disappointed today. Had been feeling pretty positive after symptom spotting despite negative tests. This morning would have be CD31 and 13DPO and I woke up bursting for the toilet then bam, back to CD1. Had cramps all day at work and just felt miserable.

New parents brought their baby in to us in work yesterday which prompted the "when are you going to have one?" "Is he not making you broody, do you want to hold him?".

I wanted to say that I'd love to hold him and also have my own but I just couldn't bring myself to say it or to hold the baby. It doesn't help that my colleague said to another she suspected that I may be pregnant as I felt a bit off last week. No one at work knows that we are TTC as I've never told them as I just wanted to be overly cautious given I'm a bit older. Sometimes I want to confide and other times I'd hate anyone knowing as they are bound to ask me for updates even though I know that they will all mean well. Sucks!

So sorry, it's so tough isn't it. I really wish people would just stop commenting on women getting pregnant and speculating that they are, it's so unnecessary and this entire process would be much easier if nobody said anything! Hope you're feeling better soon ♥️
